In Episode 16 Marissa and I talk about her not so typical route after college. We’re typically presented with two options when we gear up for graduation: continue school or get a full time job, but Marissa wanted to share a third viable option; taking a year of service. Throughout this episode we talk about her year of service, her transition into the adult world, and how you can consider taking a gap year even a few years after you’ve graduated!

Key Takeaways:

• You won’t fall behind if you don’t take the traditional adulting route after college
• Volunteering gives you a perspective in life that you cannot gain from the corporate world
• This type of experience is a safe way to leave your comfort zone
• A year of service will give you identity capital to use in interviews or on podcasts
